2022 Edinburgh Fringe
Leo Reich: Literally Who Cares?!
BCG loved Leo Reich's two person sketch show Manhunt in 2018 - now he's back, solo, with an autobiographical hour that gently mocks Gen Z issues. His style is light-hearted, knowing self-obsession and this well-structured show is peppered with songs that showcase a great singing voice.
At long last, self-diagnosed important young mind Leo Reich is ready to share some of his notoriously perfect opinions with the community at large. Faced with the swirling uncertainty of our collective future, Leo will ask the big questions such as 'Am I hot?', 'Is this helping?' and 'No offence guys but literally what is going on?'. Join this insufferable hunk as he pushes the very boundaries of what is considered "funny and good comedy". Tour support for Simon Amstell; as seen on E4, Comedy Central, ITV1 and Dave.
